Datasheet Wearing rings to improve pump efficiency and provide clearance between the casing and impeller, preventing their wear, meaning only the less costly wear rings need replacing Tropicalized motors as standard for operation up to 45°C, meaning the motor is designed to continue operating during higher than average temperatures Back pull out design for easy maintenance - allows the internals to be removed without having to disconnect the pump from the pipework Separate shafts in pump head & motor - no need to replace entire pump and motor if the shaft wears Bearings greased for life with bearing replacement at 35,000 intervals Can be supplied with a vacuum or electric priming pump on request for difficult suction conditions Interchangeable spare parts with other Azcue models to reduce stock holding Marine type approved by all classification societies e.g. Lloyds/ABS Long coupled to enable maintenance of pump head without removing the motor first Additional bearing in the pump head to share the strain of operation and increase robustness Manufactured in Spain with materials from own foundry Compact and space saving vertical design ideal for installations with limted space VA-VB Series Vertical Inline Centrifugal Pump W castlepumps.com | T +44 (0) 1773 533 283 | E sales@castlepumps.com VA-VB Vertical Inline Centrifugal Pump ‒ Long Coupled Performance: Max Flow rate 2000 m3/h Max Pressure 190 M Max Temperature 120°C Sizes Available DN150 -

• Manufactured in Spain by manufacturer with over 100 years' experience, using materials from their own foundry for complete control • Marine type approved by all classification societies e.g. Lloyds/ABS for independent verification the pump meets quality standards • VA has bottom suction and VB has inline suction for flexibility in terms of the installation space and pipework • Compact and space saving vertical design making it ideal for installations which have limited space • Long coupled to separate the pump head from the motor, so should the seal fail fluid is prevented from entering the motor and causing damage to this part • Durable for continuous use thanks to additional bearings in the pump head to share the strain of operation, increasingly its robustness • Interchangeable spare parts with other Azcue models to reduce stock holding required • Spares available for a minimum of 15 years after model discontinuation for long term servicing even if the pump is no longer produced • Bearings are greased for life with long service intervals to reduce maintenance costs – bearings replaced at 25,000 hours • Back pull out design for easy maintenance - allows the motor to be removed without disconnecting the pump • Wearing rings to improve pump efficiency and provide clearance between the casing and impeller, preventing their wear, meaning only the less costly wear rings need replacing • Separate shafts in pump head and motor - no need to replace entire pump and motor if shaft wears, saving costs • Motors are tropicalized as standard for operation up to 45ºC meaning the motor is designed continue operating during higher than average temperature • ATEX approved version for hazardous environments Materials Volute Bronze Cast iron Stainless steel Impeller Bronze Bronze Stainless steel Casing Cover Bronze Cast iron Stainless steel Shaft Pg. 3 Stainless steel W castlepumps.com | T +44 (0) 1773 533 283 | E sales@castlepumps.com Performance Curves 50 Hz 60 Hz Pg. 4 W castlepumps.com | T +44 (0) 1773 533 283 | E sales@castlepumps.com Dimensions VA Series Self-priming electropump f d m H øi Ref. 398-VA-15051 Air Type Ejector a b DNd azcue Outlet DNa DNd 30 b d f øi m max 150/51 200 150 105 283 900 800 34 500 2550 2300 200/34 250 200 70 283 850 750 34 475 2500 2100 200/40 250 65 283 900 800 34 525 2600 2300 200/51 250 200 200 Pn 16 105 283 900 800 34 575 2600 2400 250/34 300 250 100 345 900 800 34 525 2650 2600 250/41 300 350 250 200 100 280 900 800 34 600 2950 2750 100 345 1000 900 34 580 3450 3500 250/55 DNa H a Pn 16 Pn 25 Subject to alterations VB Series Self-priming electropump H øi Air Type Ejector Outlet a b DNa DNd azcue Ref. 394-VB-15051 DNa DNd H a b d f øi m n max 150/51 200 150 335 435 850 735 34 500 550 2700 2350 200/34 250 200 338 438 750 635 34 475 575 2650 2050 200/40 250 388 488 750 635 34 525 575 2750 2200 200/51 250 200 200 Pn 16 338 438 850 735 34 575 575 2750 2350 250/34 300 250 450 550 850 735 34 525 580 2800 2550 250/41 300 350 250 250 400 550 1000 885 34 600 650 3100 2700 410 610 1000 885 34 580 650 3400 3400 250/55 Pn 16 Pn 25 12 Subject to alterations øD EN1092, Pn10 øK Dna ød4 ød2 Pn16 Pn25 Pn16 150 200 250 300 200 250 350 d4 212 268 320 370 -
